Pros

Work life balance was good. The pay was decent.

Cons

It was a toxic work environment. I was only there around 6 months, before I left for grad school. But during the time I was there, I saw multiple other people start and leave within weeks.

Pros

Flex hours Easy work Never run out of things to do

Cons

Can get boring quick Once you stop learning their way of doing things you stop learning and become stagnant Not a great place to work for more that 3 years. Use 20+ year old out dated technologies simply for the fact of being lazy/not having contract money. Non rewarding work. Poorly managed and contract work can just get pulled out from under you, it happens quite often. Working on something for months then you have to full stop on it because there is no money. Then months later you need to ramp back up on it finish it out in an unreasonable time frame.

Pros

Get to work with some truely gifted professionals doing great work supporting the war-fighter. Good pay, benefits and opportunity to advance.

Cons

Company had guaranteed tasker orders for duration of multi-year contract, but senior management only seemed concerned with fee/profit. Contracts staff generally viewed as the root cause of problems they have no control over and constantly being begrudged. Work massive amount of uncompensated overtime waiting on others (like herding cats), rewriting documents for others and asking USG for schedule relief/forgiveness for stupid programic or cost-control mistakes. Finance seems to drive the boat on everything. Accountants should just focus on counting and get out of the way of the program. I received very good performance appraisals, but finally had to leave due to the constant negativity coming down from Sr Mgt and what the stress was doing to my health.
